Kate Sheppard was
born on this day in 1847. She was one of
the early pioneers for women in New
Zealand being our most famous suffragette. Because New Zealand was the first country
to give all women the vote, she actually had a lot of international influence. An image of her is on our $10 dollar note.
I didn't know that New Zealand was the first country to give the women the vote. Very interesting. :) Thanks for sharing!

DeleteI wonder where the Netherlands rates on giving women the vote. Maybe we were not so enlightened back then.
